Systems and Methods for Converting Carbon Dioxide into Chemical Feedstock

Tech ID: 12A026

Competitive Advantages

  • Eliminates CO2 emissions from point sources
  • Utilizes solar energy to reduce cost
  • Can be integrated with other processes to make liquid fuels

Summary

This invention utilizes a catalyst, made from a novel material combination, and solar energy to convert carbon dioxide into a useful chemical feedstock in an energy efficient manner. This novel chemical route for the transformation of carbon dioxide to carbon monoxide and oxygen may be incorporated into various industrial processes. The application of this technology would be with carbon capture systems, energy production, and any industrial system that releases carbon dioxide. 

Conversion of carbon dioxide to carbon monoxide. All samples used the same feed of carbon dioxide.
